Land disposal consultation report V 11
CONSULTATION REPORT
relating to
PROPOSED LAND DISPOSAL
This report is provided as a supplement to our forms for the proposed disposal of land at
Site location and description Guildford Station Surrey The land on the east side currently part of the Station Lease area It is primarily used as station car parking for passenger and staff and part of the land is on a long lease (999 years) to the owners of Ranger House (adjacent office building currently owned by Surrey County Council)
The car parking will be consolidated into a multi storey car park Station functions will be consolidated into an efficient layout primarily located in a new station building with car and cycle parking in the multi storey car park Improved forecourt and public realim in front of the station
Network Rail and developer Solum Regeneration are working with the Wessex Route Alliance Guilford Borough Council and other stakeholders to finalise site layout and arrangements
The reorganisation of the east side of the station frees up space for commercial and residential development which pays for delivery of the new station facilities
Proposal Long leasehold disposal of the land shown outlined on the attached plans No 1 and 2 It is expected a 250 year lease (s) will be granted to Solum Regeneration
We have consulted in relation to this evaluation and summarise the results of this as follows

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings
Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1
above No loss of or impact on
pedestrian provision

Raised table across forecourt to be sought Use of two controlled crossing to be considered
Applicant to check and
respond to RSA
Applicant to check and
respond to RSA
Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development
Road Safety
It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is
a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic
conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent
Noted Discussions continuing with

Walnut Bridge replacement and

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings
Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1
above No loss of or impact on
pedestrian provision

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development
Road Safety
It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is
a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic
conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that
the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015
Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access
Passenger Focus also notes that
access to the existing booking hall will be maintained until the new one is ready for use the station change process will be used for the temporary arrangements required during the development a station change and minor modification will be issued for the alteration to the station lease that the redevelopment will require
xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking
Considering only the land disposal Passenger Focus has no objection

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings

conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings
Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1
above No loss of or impact on
pedestrian provision

Raised table across forecourt to be sought Use of two controlled crossing to be considered

Applicant to check and

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development
Road Safety
It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is
a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic
conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings
Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1
above No loss of or impact on
pedestrian provision
Bridge StreetOnslow Street ndash RSA Stage 1 Requested
Raised table across forecourt to be sought Use of two controlled crossing to be considered

respond to RSA
Applicant to check and

Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development
Road Safety
It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is
a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic
conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Thank you for sending Passenger Focus details of the proposal to dispose of property In Guildford and for the replies sent in reply to issues raised They note it is part of a large redevelopment of the east side of the station and that
the land along the east side of the railway station comprises the main station building other railway buildings station car parking other parking leased to Surrey CC and access to other land the disposal is proposed to be by 250 year lease(s) to Solum Regeneration the intention is to redevelop the land as a ldquomixed userdquo scheme which will provide a new station building with larger public areas a multi-storey car park new public spaces and improved forecourt commercial retail and residential development planning approval is currently expected sometime in the summer of 2015
Network Rail will retain freehold ownership of operational land and necessary access
Passenger Focus also notes that
access to the existing booking hall will be maintained until the new one is ready for use the station change process will be used for the temporary arrangements required during the development a station change and minor modification will be issued for the alteration to the station lease that the redevelopment will require
xxxx has met with you regarding specific aspects of what the scheme will mean for passengers at the station Passenger Focus looks forward to representing passengers as the development progresses xxxx SWT‟s stakeholder manager has been in touch regarding dispensation for various features of the car parking

Land disposal consultation report V 11
Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Guildford - Land Disposal Process
Further to our conversation I confirm that we are able to offer our conditional approval to the land disposal proposed We support the principle of the Solum Development and will continue to work with the development team to ensure our operational railways concerns are duly considered
Our conditional approval is given on the assumption that the land will not be formally disposed of until South Western Trains Ltd has received and given its specific approval to the appropriate Station Change documentation which should include any relevant commercial arrangements
Please contact either myself or xxxx directly if you require any further clarification

Land disposal consultation report V 11 The junction of Walnut Tree Close and Bridge Street should be improved Proposal identified by Developer Applicant to check
and respond to RSA
Audit
The parking spaces at the narrow section of Walnut Tree Close should be reviewed as there is
a problem with traffic gridlock during peak times
Not relevant to scheme None
Application includes modelling of
gyratory
TDP to present a
summary of the
impact with the formal
response
The two suggested bdquomitigating‟ schemes for the gyratory the widening of the exit from Walnut
Tree Close and of the right turn from Bridge St (towards the south) will have
very limited effect on capacity whilst increasing risks to pedestrians and increasing the
likelihood of lane-changing collisions Contrary to the MB document there is indeed an accident
problem in Walnut Tree Close if not of the scale of the gyratory itself The
Station Square General arrangement appears to show two zebra () crossings either side of
the vehicle entry exit Given the existing pelican the volume and nature of
pedestrian traffic the existing accident problem would be better mitigated by raised two pedex
crossings
Walnut Tree Close Junction ndash See 1
above No loss of or impact on
pedestrian provision
Bridge StreetOnslow Street ndash RSA Stage 1 Requested
Raised table across forecourt to be sought Use of two controlled crossing to be considered
Applicant to check and
respond to RSA
Applicant to check and
respond to RSA
Applicant to confirm proposed works as part of the development
Road Safety
It is difficult to make comment on the Station redevelopment proposal in isolation There is
a proposal to close Walnut Tree Close which would clearly affect traffic
conditions Similarly development LEP and major scheme monies are earmarked for various
locations in the vicinity of the station ndash these include schemes for the gyratory itself
Woodbridge Road and Middleton Rd The appropriate mitigation measures for
the station redevelopment will depend on the progress of other schemes ndash the traffic effects
are interdependent
Noted Discussions continuing with

Policy) Mitigation sought to include
forecourt raised table waymarking
signage contribution towards
Walnut Bridge replacement and
Travel Planning initiatives

Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised

Land disposal consultation report V 11
Hi
I am part of the consultation team for the Guildford Project and attended a scheme briefing and Secured by Design review workshop in Aug 2014 where the following was agreed
All agreed the workshop had been very useful and there were no key issues that required addressing before application would be submitted
Post planning approval (anticipated Jan 15) a series of meetings would be arranged to develop the design in line with best practice
Should contact be required in the meantime they should contact the PM xxxx ndash macegroupcom ndash
No subsequent meeting has taken place this year to date so the above statement stands subject to the condition that safety and security of the railway is paramount and never compromised
Kind Regards
